A "must" for psychotherapists

This is a marvelous book! I know of nothing else like it, in the field of psychotherapy. This great Sufi Master introduces a topic which is virtually never discussed in psychotherapy training (whether at an MD, PhD, MSW, or Master's level) -- in a way which is clear, meaningful, moving, and subtle. It has given me the courage to be the therapist I always knew I was meant to be -- but never could quite find the way(even reading the great Jung's work)-- until I found Pir Vilayat's books and teachings. Your patients will be truly grateful to you for integrating spirituality in your work. Over the past 16 years, since studying Pir's works, I have found that, ultimately, patients are seeking their reason for living, their reason for "being". This small gem of a book will help you know how to get started.
